"Stonking 4k tv deals" around now are for low end 4K, a quick look in the comments section of the 4K deals will show you the problems people are having with these. This is a high end HD set, one of the best available.

£100 cheaper than the nearest competition, so on that basis alone it has to be hot.

Look up the 55" Phillips posted here. It's not a high end 4K model but it's certainly better than this high end 1080 TV, it's also much bigger.

I don't think it has. I saw it pretty much as soon as it was posted and it said full HD. I would've gotten all flustered if there was even a shred of hope it was 4K, but I didn't.

Not for gaming it isn't. Just because it's 4K doesn't make it automatically a better TV

It's not as simple as that. Whilst the Philips 55PUS6401 that regularly pops up on here is undoubtedly good value, not everyone wants or needs a screen of that size, nor do people always base what to buy on the basis of finding the biggest possible screen size for a particular price. The Philips you mention has an IPS panel and if this Sony is equipped with a VA panel (as used in the previous WD753) that may be an important consideration to someone that prefers better black levels vs the wider viewing angles of IPS.

I may go on about this, but the one key feature all Sonys have is a lack of PWM backlighting. Sadly we have to pay a premium for something now implemented in every PC monitor due to it being a recognised health issue.

Ever wondered why you get so irritated watching Eastenders with the other half? It's not just the bad acting, it's that flickering backlight giving you a headache, causing nausea and affecting your nervous system.

So the point that I made at the start is valid.

Resolution is a complete non-issue on a TV of this size unless you're sitting at a desk and using it as a computer monitor.

yes thats why i edited it the title was correct but the information of whats in the box on amazon was for a different model and it is still on the amazon page if you scroll down to itupdate amazon have now corrected it

I'd certainly consider buying this over a 4K TV..... firstly I can't fit anything bigger in my butler's room, secondly I doubt he'd benefit from 4K when watching his blu rays or SkyHD (I do treat him well you but will not be going the 4K route for a while)

I'd much rather get a top end Full HD than a low/mid range 4K as resolution alone does not maketh the TV.
